TR6 Oil filter relocate kit

Has any one replaced the original oil filter and canister to a relocation kit . So the filter is vertical and say mounted to the fire wall or driver fender for ease of changing. Do you have a model or part # for the kit ? Thanks Frank
 
Moss Motors sells an adapter that replaces the canister with a screw on filter. The adapter mounts where the canister came off of.
 
If the main thing you want is for the filter to be vertical, it's possible to do it on the engine, but not easy.

Not so much being vertical only but where it is moved from to an open space. One piece goes on the block and two braided lines say go to the inner fender where the new spin on is located on another block
 
I have never seen an off-the-shelf arrangement like what you are describing. Maybe something could be fabbed up using an external oil cooler kit…
 
You can easily buy the remote filter fixture and the lines. The hard part would be the adapter on the block. Might have to be custom.

What I bought was the 90* spin on filter adapter. that bolts to the block and references the spin on PH8A filter to lay against the block facing the front of the car. I I choose to relocate with hoses and another filter block , it will screw onto the spin on adapter where this filter goes and the remote block can be mounted anywhere the hoses can reach. Thank you all for the responses OG
 
Sorry, new to forum. The part you are looking is made by ThinkAuto (MOCAL). P/N: TOPO6
Ask for Nick Fitzgerald. I bought mine for him so he will know what you are asking for.
